Permissions for one form changed

I have an Access 2002 application with approx 170 forms.
Security permissions are controlled via the back end tables.
In the front end (mde), the 'Users' group has access to all forms.
Yesterday, a client advised that she could not access one form. On checking,
I found that all 'Users' group permissions had been removed for that form
and that form only.
My backups indicate that the change occurred in the last 2 days, and
occurred in my master copy of the front end as well as the distributed mde,
so it wasn't anything the client had done.
Has anyone else experienced similar problems? Could it be a result of a
corruption on the form?
Everything else seems to be working on the form.

re: Permissions for one form changed


Did you have corruption issues ? and because of that
did you do something as SaveAsTxt <> SaveFromTxt ?

Arno,
Thanks for your reply, but no, I've not had any corruption issues (unless
this is one).

Bob,

This means that these changes occurred *without* distributing a new mde ???
Sounds like magic to me, unless there is code inside the app that makes the changes.

Arno,
I have no code to change permissions on one form in the front end.
The mde was only mentioned to show how the app was deployed. It's not really
relevant to the problem (sorry I mentioned it).
In view of the lack of responses from anyone with similar experience, I
guess we come back to some type of corruption on this one form.
